Okay, friends.
Have a lovely one.
Today's newsletter is free to read. It reflects on the dangers of worrying about how you might look while doing good works in the world. We have a long, judgmental tradition that many have weaponized, by accusing people of "boasting" if they talk publicly about how they show up in their communities.
It's bad counsel, which causes us to censor conversations that we sorely need more of, to truly heal ourselves and the world.
